Objective To explore the relationship between serum tumor markers and cervical cancer by using Logistic regression, and to further establish the diagnosis model of squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC) in cervical cancer by using chi-squared automatic interaction detector (CHAID) analysis of decision tree.Methods Total of 581 cases of cervical cancer,342 cases of cervical benign diseases and 341 cases of healthy controls who detected tumor markers in Taizhou Hospital of Zhejiang during 2010-2013, were retrospectively studied.The test results of carbohydrate antigen 199 (CA199), carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), SCC, and alpha fetoprotein (AFP) were reviewed.The Logistic regression were firstly used in screening the related tumor markers of cervical cancer, and then the CHAID method of decision tree was used in determining the values of the related tumor markers on the diagnosis of cervical cancer.The SCC elevated cases of uterine disease from January 2014 to December 2014 were collected to verify the diagnostic value of SCC in cervical cancer patients.Results Logistic regression analysis showed that among the 5 tumor markers which might be associated with cervical cancer, SCC was the only one which had statistical significance between cervical cancer and cervical benign diseases (Wald x2 =22.120,P =0.000), the OR and its 95％ CI was 1.900 (1.454-2.483).With the SCC numerical increases, the proportion of patients with cervical cancer also gradually increased, when SCC ＞ 2.20 μg/L, the positive predictive value was 94.7％.In 284 cases of SCC higher than 2.20 μg/L who considered as uterus related diseases, there were 270 cases (95.1％) who were eventually confirmed as cervical cancer.Conclusion There was a good diagnostic value of SCC for cervical cancer patients.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) is a kind of opportunistic pathogen which can cause a wide range of serious infections clinically.These infections are often associated with the formation of biofilm, and are difficult to treat due to the complexity of mechanisms.Some studies have showed that genotype and phenotype of biofilm PA will change, and biofilm PA will aggregate together and secrete extracellular polymeric substance.Therefore, innate immune system could not recognize the camouflaged antigens.Besides, biofilm PA can secrete a variety of virulent factors to hamper the function of innate immune system.This article introduces the main chronic infection caused by PA biofilm and the relationship between biofilm PA and natural innate immune system.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the ESBLs ′ genotypes and the resistance of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae in Taizhou Hospital of Zhejiang Province.METHODS We collected 30 strains of E.coli and K.pneumoniae expressing ESBLs,then analyzed their encoding genotypes of TEM,SHV,PER,VEB and CTX genes by PCR and DNA sequencing technology separately.RESULTS There were 26 strains expressing blaCTS-M gene among 30 strains,in which 16 strains belonged to blaCTS-M-9 subgroup genotype,8 strains to blaCTX-M-1,7 strains to blaCTX-M-2,4 strains to blaCTX-M-1 as well as blaCTX-M-2,1 strain to blaCTX-M-2 as well as blaCTX-M-9 and 1 strain belonged to blaCTX-M-1 as well as blaCTX-M-9.CONCLUSIONS The prevalent clinical genotype of E.coli and K.pneumoniae is blaCTX-M-9.

Objective To investigate the antibiotic resistance and resistance genes of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceaes (CRE) isolated from 5 hospitals in Northeast China.Methods This study collected 85 CRE isolates during January 2013 to June 2015 from five hospitals in Northeast China.Drug sensitivities of 14 antimicrobial agents were determined by the broth microdilution method.The phenotypes of carbapenemases were screened by modified Hodge test and EDTA test respectively.The genotypes of carbapenemases and other extended spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL) were detected by PCR gene amplification and DNA sequencing method.Using the PCR result as gold standard, the performances of other two carbapenemase detection methods were evaluated.Results Among the 85 CRE strains collected in this study, Klebsiella pneumoniae was the most frequently isolated species (61/85,71.8%).The results of antimicrobial agent sensitivity showed that the 85 CRE strains had resistance rate of cephalosporin and β-lactams/enzyme inhibitor (piperacillin-tazobactam) over 80.0%.The resistance rate of carbapenem was high, with ertapenem 100.0% (85/85), meropenem 65.9% (56/85), imipenem 71.8% (61/85).There were 36 isolates resistant to both meropenem and imipenem.For fluoroquinolones, the resistance rates of levofloxacin and ciprofloxacin were 72.9% (62/85) and 65.9% (56/85), respectively.The resistance rate to fosfomycin and amikacin were 65.0% (55/85) and 54.1% (46/85), respectively.The resistance rate of colistin (21.2%, 18/85) and tigecycline (20.5%, 17/85) were low.Forty-nine strains were modified Hodge test positive and 12 strains were EDTA test positive.By PCR gene amplification and DNA sequencing method, 64 strains carried carbapenemase-encoding genes, of which KPC-2 was the main type (53/85, 62.4%), followed by IMP-4 (10/85, 11.8%), NDM-5 (7/85, 8.2%) and NDM-6 (1/85, 1.2%).At the same time, 85 CRE isolates had the ESBL gene detection and 47 isolates were CTX-M type ESBLs (47/85, 55.3%), with no TEM or SHV type.Conclusions Klebsiella pneumoniae is the majority of CRE strains from 5 large hospitals in Northeastern China.The CRE strains are resistant to most of antimicrobials.Most carbapenemases-producing isolates have the KPC-2 type.Nearly half of the carbapenemase-producing strains also carry ESBL genes, which makes the resistance mechanisms more complicated.

Objective To retrospectively analyze the clinical distribution and changes in antimicrobial resistance profiles of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). Methods We collected clinical specimens of S. aureus from The First Hospital of China Medical University. The Vitek-2 and BD Phoenix 100 were performed for bacterial identification and drug sensitivity tests,and WHONET 5.6 was used to analyze the data. Results From 2007 to 2016,there were 3 377 unrepeatable strains of S. aureus,including 1 705 that were methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA). The isolation rate of S. aureus was 9.4 ％ and of these,50.5 ％ were MRSA. There were 776 S. aureus specimens from outpatients or the emergency department,including 16.8 ％ MRSA,and 2 011 S. aureus from inpatient departments,including 60.2 ％ MRSA. The main sources of specimens were sputum (41.8 ％),pus (17.9 ％),and body secretions (17.5 ％). The average resistance rates of MRSA for erythromycin,ofloxacin,ciprofloxacin,gentamycin,and tetracycline were higher than 75.0 ％. The average resistance rate of methicillin sensitive S. aureus (MSSA) for erythromycin was up to 76.8 ％,and for tetracycline,gentamycin,ciprofloxacin,and ofloxacin,were less than 25.0 ％. In 10 years,the average resistance rates of MRSA and MSSA for 11 kinds of common antibiotics had no obvious change. Conclusion The constituent rate of MRSA was high in The First Hospital of China Medical University,especially from the areas that were not sterile,suggesting that clinicians should pay attention to the identification of infection and sources for MRSA,which were from such areas. Hospital infection control should be focused on at the same time,in order to reduce the incidence of MRSA.

Objective:To analyze the early identification, clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of gestational hypertension crisis combined with adrenal disease.Methods:The clinical data of 23 patients of HCP complicated with adrenal disease admitted from Jul. 2009 to Jul. 2019 were retrospectively studied. The clinical characteristics, imaging characteristics, treatment and clinical transfer were studied.Results:The occurrence of all the 23 cases were acute. Among them, 16 cases had eclampsia combined with Cushing’s syndrome, 4 cases were pregnancy combined with primary aldosteronism (PA) and extreme hypokalemia, and 3 cases had eclampsia combined with pheochromocytoma (PHEO) . After admission, the patients were given symptomatic support treatment for sedation, analgesia, blood pressure control, dehydration, cranial pressure reduction, electrolyte balance and spasmolysis, and patients with severe preeclampsia and preeclampsia terminated their pregnancy in time. After treatment, 3 patients gave live birth, 12 received postpartum surgical treatment and 10 received drug treatment. The clinical symptoms improved and imaging examination suggested the lesions in the brain narrowed and disappeared, except one patient had major cerebral hemorrhage and died of multiple organ failure.Conclusions:In case of HCP and severe hypokalemia, relevant examinations should be improved in combination with symptoms to comprehensively diagnose whether it is complicated with adrenal diseases. The treatment methods and process of HCP with adrenal diseases need to be optimized, so as to judge the timing of termination of pregnancy, and minimize the impact on mother and fetus.

Objective:To investigate the prognosis and influencing factors of secondary cytoreductive surgery (SCS) combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of recurrent ovarian cancer.Methods:A total of 102 patients with recurrent ovarian cancer admitted to our hospital from Jun. 2012 to Jun. 2015 were selected and grouped according to treatment methods. 31 patients who received paclitaxel/carboplatin (TC) chemotherapy were included in the control group, and 71 patients who received SCS combined with TC chemotherapy were included in the observation group. Clinical efficacy and 5-year survival outcome of the two groups after treatment, were compared and factors affecting the prognosis of the observation group were analyzed.Results:The total effective rate, 1-year survival rate, 3-year survival rate, and 5-year survival rate of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group. The median survival time of the observation group was 52 months and was significantly longer than that of the control group by 17 months ( P<0.05) ; There was no statistical difference between the death group and the survival group in terms of age, pathological type, tissue differentiation, recurrence tumor size, or location of recurrence tumors. The number of patients with FIGO stage IV, more than 3 recurrent tumors, ascites and residual lesion size >1 cm in the death group were significantly larger than those in the survival group. The serum CA125 level of patients in the death group was significantly higher than that in the survival group. Logistic regression analysis showed that the number of recurring tumors>3, with ascites, and residual lesions>1 cm, and high level of CA125 were independent risk factors for death after SCS combined with TC chemotherapy ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:SCS combined with chemotherapy can effectively improve the therapeutic effect, relieve the clinical symptoms, improve the survival rate of patients, and prolong the survival time of patients. The prognosis of SCS combined with chemotherapy is affected by the number of recurrent tumors, the presence or absence of ascites, the size of residual lesions, and CA125 level. The prognosis and survival of patients can be improved by adopting appropriate treatment.

Objective To describe the clinical characteristics of hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKP) infection.To analyze the antibiotic susceptibility of hvKP to provide the empiric antibiotic options.To investigate capsule serotype and sequence type (ST) of hvKP and their correlation with clinical profiles.Methods hvKP was defined as bacteria isolated from patients with community-acquired pyogenic liver abscess (CA-PLA) with co-infection sites outside liver or a bloodstream infection in a host without underlying biliary tract diseases.Patients with CA-PLA hospitalized in the First Hospital of China Medical University were retrospectively analyzed from January 2011 to December 2017.Antibiotic susceptibility was detected by automatic bacterial identification and antibiotic susceptibility analysis system in vitro.Polymerase chain reaction method and gene sequencing were used to detect the main capsule serotype and ST.Results A total of 140 cases with hvKP infection were enrolled.The co-infections outside liver abscess included 98 bloodstream infections,53 pneumonia,11 perianal abscess,10 urinary system infections,3 subphrenic abscess,3 endophthalmitis,2 spleen abscess,and other miscellaneous infections including 1 peritonitis,1 skin and soft tissue infection,1 myelitis,1 colitis,1 psoas major abscess and 1 myocardial abscess.Among the 140 cases,106 presented with single co-infection site,32 with 2 sites,and 2 with 3 sites.HvKP manifested high antibiotic susceptibility up to 80％ for most commonly used antibiotics.Capsule serotyping of 4,3 revived isolates indicated that K1 serotype accounted for 53.49％ (23/43),K2 34.88 (15/43),K54 2.33％ (1/43),K57 2.33％ (1/43),and other serotypes 6.98％(3/43).There was no significant distribution among K1,K2,K54,and K57 of hvKP capsule serotypes in patients with or without diabetes mellitus (P＞0.05).Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) suggested that ST23 and ST65 were predominant accounting for 39.53％ (17/4.3) and 25.58％ (11/4.3) respectively.No serotype or ST predominance was seen in any of the clinical infections.Conclusion HvKP is related to a wide spectrum of infectious diseases,including multiple extrahepatic sites and bloodstream infections besides CA-PLA with high antibiotic susceptibility.K1 and K2 are the predominant capsule serotypes,and ST 23 and ST65 are the predominant sequence types.
