OBJECTIVE:Using in vitro studies,we evaluated the antibacterial activity of amoxicillin/tazobactam against 128 strains of pathogens isolated from patients and compared with amoxicillin/clavulanic acid and amoxicillin/sulbactam.METHODS:To detect the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC)of four ?-lactams against 128 clinically isolated strains with agar dilution method.RESULTS:The results indicated that the in vitro antibacterial activity of amoxicillin/tazobactam(2∶1) was the best.The MIC50 of amoxicillin/tazobactam(2∶1) is 1/4～1/8 times than those of amoxicillin/sulbutam and amoxicillin/clavulanic acid.The MIC90 of amoxicillin/tazobactam(2∶1) was 1/2～1/4 of those of amoxicillin/sulbutam and amoxicillin/clavulanic acid.The combination ratio 2∶1(amoxicillin/tazobactam)of the two compounds was more suitable than other combination ratios(4∶1 and 8∶1)for inactivating ?-lactamase.CONCLUSION:The in vitro antibacterial activities of amoxicillin/tazobactam(2∶1) against MRSA,MRSE,MSSA and E.coli are high.It showed that amoxicillin/tazobactam(2∶1)is stable to ?-lactamase and is an effective bactericidal agent.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the correlation between articulation, velopharyngeal function, and surgical age by comparing the changes in articulation after velopharyngeal closure is performed. This study is also conducted to investigate the influencing factors of omission change between pre- and post-operation.

METHODSA total of 48 patients, including 18 males and 30 females, mean age (13.3 ± 5.8) years, with non-syndromic cleft lips and palates were selected from January 2011 to December 2011. Their speech data and articulation between pre- and post-operation were retrospectively analyzed using non-parametric tests. Correlation study was performed to analyze the influencing factors of the changes in articulation. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.

RESULTSThe difference in articulation after velopharyngeal closure occurred was significant (Z = -3.796, P = 0.000). A negative correlation between the ratio of post-operative normal articulation and surgical age (R = -0.487, P = 0.000) was observed. The change in omission was positively correlated with surgical age (R = 0.589, P = 0.000) and gender (R = 0.404, P = 0.047). By comparison, the change in omission was negatively correlated with follow-up time (R = -0.235, P = 0.040).

CONCLUSIONArticulation and intelligibility are significantly improved after velopharyngeal closure is performed. These parameters are negatively correlated with surgical age to some extent. In addition, the change in omission is positively correlated with surgical age and gender, whereas the change in omission is negatively correlated with follow-up time.

ObjectiveTo investigate the impact of antimicrobial resistance on clinical outcomes and medical care costs among patients with imipenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (IRAB) nosocomial infection.MethodsA retrospective matched case-control study was performed to compare the differences of clinical outcomes and medical care costs between patients with IRAB infection and patients with imipenem-susceptive Acinetobacter baumannii (ISAB) infection in a tertiary care university teaching hospital in China from January 2007 to June 2009.Cases were matched to controls with ratio of 1:1 on the basis of age,sex,severity of underlying diseases,source of infection,duration of hospitalization period and length of hospital stay before onset of infection.The measurement data between groups were compared by t test and rank test.The numeration data between groups were compared by x2 test. Multiple analysis was performed by Logistic regression.ResultsThe total mortality rate of IRAB infection patients was significantly higher than that of ISAB infection patients (39.1％ vs 20.3 ％ ; x2 =11.728,P＜0.01).Among 138 pairs of patients in IRAB group and ISAB group,there were 72 matched case-control pairs survived,which were significantly different in length of total hospital stay (28.5 days vs 23.0 days; x2 =2.886,P＜0.01) and intensive care unit (ICU) stay (14.5 days vs 0 day; x2 =4.844,P＜0.01).For all the 138 case-control pairs,everyday total hospitalization cost and everyday antibiotic therapy cost in IRAB cases were both higher than ISAB controls (RMB 3652 yuan vs RMB 2092 yuan; Z=3.792,P＜0.01 and RMB 555 yuan vs RMB 338 yuan; Z=4.209,P＜0.01).ConclusionIRAB infection can increase the mortality rate,lengthen hospital stay and elevate the medical costs notably.

Objective To analyze the application value of the rapid testing for influenza during 2007-2008 flu season at fever clinic in Beijing Chaoyang hospital Methods 500 patients with diagnosis of influenza-like illness were prospectively enrolled. Pharyngeal swabs were collected for influenza viral culture and rapid testing for influenza. Demographic characteristics, age, symptoms, lab tests, symptom recovery time and medical expense were also collected. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value for rapid testing were analyzed. Results A total of 500 patients were enrolled between Dec 2007 and March 2008. Among them 498 cases were used for analysis. Influenza B was most common by virus culture methed(n=208,41.8%) ,followed by influenza A (n=51,10.2%). The average age was 35, and the ratio of male to female was 1.47:1. Compared with the group of positive culture, patients with influenza were more likely to get cough, sore throat, and nasal congestion (t=13.728, 4.014and 4.720,P<0.001 or 0.05, respectively). A total of 260 cases were subjected to rapid testing, Among them 18 cases were influenza A positive and 132 cases were influenza B positive. The rapid testing had a sensitivity of 77.1 % and a specificity of 70.1%. The positive predictive value was 78.6% and the negative predictive value was 68.2%. The rapid testing had enhanced the proportion of anti-viral treatment from 0 to 26% and reduced the proportion of antibiotic use from 63.4% to 20. 7%. Conclusions Influenza B is the most predominant pathogen during 2007-2008 flu season among patients with influenza-like illness in Beijing. The rapid testing with high sensitivity and specificity provides guidance on clinical practice.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the application of the perceptual assessment in the diagnosis of the velopharyngeal function, to provide a reference to the improvement of the velopharyngeal function diagnosis through comparing the consistency between the diagnosis of the perceptual assessment and the objective assessment.

METHODSAll subjects (254) were selected from the Department of Cleft Lip and Palate Surgery, West China School of Stomatology, Sichuan University, from 2000-2010. The results of the perceptual and the nasopharyngeal fiberscope (NPF) assessment were retrospectively analyzed, and the consistent rate between the two assessment methods was calculated. The Kappa test and the correlation analysis were performed to analyze the consistency and correlation, and the factors relating to the perceptual assessment were analyzed by the correlation coefficient.

RESULTSThere were 254 patients met the inclusion criteria. The consistent number of the patients diagnosed by the perceptual and the objective assessment as velopharyngeal competence (VPC) and velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) were 58 and 167 respectively. The consistent rate was 88.58% for all patients, and 66.67% for the VPC patients. The Kappa value was 0.721, Spearman's R=0.751, P<0.05. There were correlation between the hypernasality, the nasal emission and the subjective assessment, and Spearman's R=0.697, 0.590, P<0.05.

CONCLUSIONThe VPC patients and the VPI patients with moderate and severe hypernasality and nasal emission diagnosed by the perceptual assessment could be exempt from the objective examination. Patients diagnosed with mild hypernasality and nasal emission by the perceptual assessment should be further referred to NPF or other instruments.

Currently, power generation in China is dominated by thermal power, wind power, nuclear power, and hydropower enterprises. The power source mainly comes from thermal power generation. The occupational hazards in thermal power station are noise, high temperature, power frequency electric fields, dust, and chemical toxins and so on, with noise and dust (silica and coal dust) being the primary factors. The occupational hazards in wind power station are noise, power frequency electric fields, high temperature, low temperature, and chemical toxins (sulfur hexafluoride, toluene, styrene, etc.), with noise and power frequency electric fields being the major concerns. The occupational radiation hazards in nuclear power station are gamma rays, beta rays, X-rays, neutrons, alpha rays, and radioactive aerosols. There is special attention in radiation protection but not enough protection in non-radioactive hazards such as noise, high temperature, and ammonia. The occupational hazards in hydropower station are noise, power frequency electric fields, vibration, radon and its de-composites, and chemical toxins, with noise and power frequency electric fields being the primary hazards. Different categories of power generation enterprises should identify key hazards and work site for occupational disease prevention and control based on the features of occupational hazards. Improving occupational health management and protection levels are essential measures.

Objective To systematically review whether mirror therapy(MT)intervention can effectively improve upper extremity motor function and activities of daily living(ADL)in stroke patients;whether its improvement is affected by pa-tients'age and disease course;and whether MT's influencing factors,such as intervention period,time,and fre-quency,have a dosage effect on upper extremity motor function and ADL. Methods Seven databases were searched,including Embase,Web of Science,PubMed,Cochrane Library,Wanfang data,VIP and CNKI from establishment to April,2023,and randomized controlled trials of MT for upper extremity motor function and ADL in stroke patients were screened.Quality assessment was performed using Physiothera-py Evidence Database(PEDro).Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4.1,and network meta-analysis was performed using R software,reticulated meta-analysis tables and cumulative probability tables were drawn for ranked comparisons,and funnel plots were drawn to test for publication bias of the outcome indicators using Stata 17.0 software.GRADE was used to evaluate the quality of evidence for the outcome indicators. Results A total of 13 papers(532 patients)were included.The PEDro score ranged from 6 to 8.Most of the literature did not report the blinding completely or did not implement allocation concealment,which might have some limita-tions.MT could improve the scores of Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Upper Extremities(n = 466,MD = 6.05,95%CI 3.44～8.66,P<0.001),Barthel index(n = 230,MD = 9.95,95%CI 6.23～13.68,P<0.001)and Functional Inde-pendence Measure(n = 147,MD = 4.17,95%CI 2.61～5.72,P<0.001)in stroke patients.Network meta-analysis showed that MT was more effective in upper limb motor function intervention for stroke patients aged 40 to 59 years with a disease course less than three months;and an intervention period less than four weeks,single inter-vention time less than 30 minutes,intervention duration daily more than 30 minutes and intervention twice daily might optimize the effects on upper limb motor function. Conclusion MT is effective on upper limb motor function and ADL in stroke patients,and the effect on upper limb mo-tor function is affected by the age and disease course of the patients,as well as the period,time and frequency of intervention.

Objective:To investigate the effects of different concentrations of hydrogen peroxide (H 2O 2) on the expression of histone deacetylase-2(HDAC-2) and mitogen activated protein kinases phosphatases-1(MKP-1) in A549 cells. Methods:The experimental models of A549 cells were established by intervening of different concentrations of H 2O 2(0, 100, 200, 400, 600, 800 μmol/L)for 2 h, 4 h, 8 h, 12 h and 24 h, respectively.The survival rate of A549 cells was detected by thiazolyl blue(MTT) assay, and the apoptosis of A549 cells was tested by lactic dehydrogenase(LDH) assay.The expression of HDAC-2 and MKP-1 protein was detected by Western blot. Results:(1)MTT results showed that compared with the control group (H 2O 2 was 0 μmol/L), the survival rate of A549 cells was decreased with the increase of H 2O 2 concentration at 2 h, 4 h, 8 h, 12 h, 24 h and 48 h. (2)LDH results showed that, compared with the control group, the inhibition rate of A549 cells increased with the increase of H 2O 2 concentration at 2 h, 4 h, 8 h, 12 h, 24 h and 48 h. (3)The expression of HDAC-2 protein decreased ( F=14.588, P<0.01), and the expression of MKP-1 protein increased ( F=64.297, P<0.01) in a concentration-dependent manner with the increase of H 2O 2 concentration at 12 h after H 2O 2 treatment. Conclusions:H 2O 2 participates in oxidative stress injury of lung cells by regulating the expression of HDAC-2 and MKP-1.
