Objective To compare the sensitivity and specificity of interferon-gamma release assay(IGRA) in the Tibetan and Han patients with pulmonary tuberculosis(TB),and to investigate its clinical application value for screening Tibetan patients with pulmonary TB.Methods Sixty-four Tibetan cases of pulmonary TB,41 Tibetan cases of non-pulmonary TB,40 Han cases of pulmonary TB and 38 Han cases of non-pulmonary-TB in our hospital from April 2013 to April 2015 were selected and performed IGRA.T cells infected by mycobacterium tuberculosis were detected by ELISA.The difference between Tibetan abd Han nationalities was compared.The clinical value of IGRAfor screening Tibetan patients with pulmonary TB was evaluated by calculating the statistical indicators.Results The sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value and negative predictive value of IGRA for diagnosing Tibetan pulmonary TB were 90.62%(58/64),80.49%(33/41),87.88%(58/66) and 84.62%(33/39) respectively,which for diagnosing Han patients with pulmonary TB were 92.50%(37/40),84.21%(32/38),86.05%(37/43) and 91.43%(32/35) respectively.The sensitivity and specificity of IGRA for diagnosing Tibetan and Han pulmonary TB had no statistical difference(χ2=0.005,P=0.944;χ2=0.018,P=0.893).Conclusion IGRA has high value for early diagnosis of Tibetan pulmonaty TB and is conducive to screening of early pulmonary TB.

This study is to screen 23 blank O/W type microemulsion (ME) samples, that is 15 samples from our laboratory, and 8 samples from literature; compare the conductivity-water content curve (CWCC) method and visual method in determining the critical water content during O/W type MEs' formation, to analyze the deficiency and the feasibility of visual method and to exploxe scientific meanings of CWCC method in judging the critical water content of O/W type MEs during formation. The results show that there is a significant difference between the theoretical feasible CWCC method and visual method in determining the critical water content (P<0.001), and the results judged by conductivity is higher than that by eye-based water content. Therefore, this article firmly confirmed the shortcomings of visual method and suggested that the eye-base "critical water content" may falls into continuous ME stage during O/W MEs' formation. Further more, the CWCC method has theoretical feasibility and scientific meanings in determining the critical water content of O/W type MEs during formation.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) on left ventricular (LV) myocardial perfusion, myocardial viability, LV remodeling, regional and global LV function serially following acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in Chinese mini-pigs.Methods:AMI was established in 12 Chinese mini-pigs (8 males, 4 females; age: 6-8 months) and they were randomly divided into RIC group ( n=6) and non-RIC group ( n=6). RIC was performed in pigs by blood pressure inflation on the lower limbs for 5 min period and 4 cycles immediately after surgery. A series of myocardial perfusion imaging and gated 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) myocardial metabolism PET/CT imaging were performed longitudinally at the 1st, 14th, 28th and 56th days after AMI, and parameters including total perfusion defect (TPD), hibernating myocardium (HM), Scar, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV), left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV), summed motion score (SMS), summed thickening score (STS) and changes of these parameters were obtained. Independent-samples t test and Mann-Whitney U test were used to analyze data. Results:Nine Chinese mini-pigs survived after surgery and were performed imaging. Compared to non-RIC group ( n=4), HM at the 28th ((6.0±2.4)% vs (17.0±4.6)%; t=-4.158), TPD 14th-1st ((-11.8±5.4)% vs 9.0%(4.5%, 15.0%); z=2.449), TPD 28th-1st ((-15.3±3.9)% vs (12.0±3.0)%; t=-10.071), TPD 56th-1st ((-18.0±6.5)% vs 9.0%(4.5%, 12.0%); z=2.449), HM 28th-1st ((-10.5±6.9)% vs (8.3±2.1)%; t=-4.507), HM 56th-1st (-15.0%(-17.5%, -8.5%) vs 2.0%(0%, 7.0%); z=2.449) and LVEDV 14th-1st (-0.5(-2.5, 0) ml vs (13.0±4.4) ml; z=2.470) were reduced in RIC group ( n=5; all P<0.05). Conclusion:RIC can improve myocardial perfusion, delay LV remodeling in the acute stage and salvage hibernating myocardium in the subacute stage and chronic stage.

Objective:To explore the effect of plastic surgery suture technique and its proficiency in facial scar inhibition after trauma, and to explore the key factors to improve the suture proficiency of junior residents.Methods:The data of patients with facial trauma who underwent plastic surgery suture in the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery of Ningbo First Hospital from June 2017 to July 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into senior group and junior group according to the seniority of chief surgeon. The general condition, scar appearance and local symptoms of the two groups were evaluated by the scar cosmesis assessment and rating scale(SCAR), including scar expansion, erythema, hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation, suture marks, hyperplasia or atrophy, scar pruritus, scar pain, and the results were statistically analyzed.The mean of continuous data were calculated and expressed as Mean ± SD, the differences between groups were tested by t-test, and the classified data were expressed by rate, and the differences between groups were tested by chi-square test. Results:A total of 83 patients (54 females and 29 males) were included in this study, the maximum age was 63, the minimum age was 3, and the average age was 31.7±13.3 years old, including senior group (52 cases) and junior group (31 cases). The differences were not statistically significant in gender, age, injury time, wound length and complications between the two groups. The total scores of SCAR scale in the senior and junior groups were 2.18±0.98 and 2.78±1.30, respectively, the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.020). The senior group was better than the junior group in inhibiting scar expansion ( P=0.035), eliminating suture marks ( P=0.018), overall scar impression ( P=0.038) and reducing pigment abnormality ( P=0.045). However, in inhibiting erythema and inhibiting scar hyperplasia or atrophy, the differences were not statistically significant between two groups. In the senior group, 4 patients had pain within 24 hours, 3 patients had pruritus; in the junior group, 2 patients had pain, 3 patients had pruritus. Conclusions:Plastic surgery suture technique will effectively improve the appearance of facial scar after trauma, especially in inhibiting scar expansion, erythema, hyperplasia or atrophy, and overall impression.Junior doctors can be competent for this work to a certain extent, but thay need long-term training to master the technology, and skilled operation can further improve the curative effect.

Objective This study aimed to investigate the protective effect and mechanism of carvacrol hydrogel on the alveolar bone in rats with periodontitis.Methods A thermosensitive hydrogel supported by carvacrol was pre-pared using poloxamer and hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose as matrix.SD rats were randomly divided into blank group,periodontitis group,blank hydrogel group,and low-,medium-,and high-dose hydrogel groups.The periodonti-tis symptoms and the CT structure of the alveolar bone were observed.The changes in liver,spleen,kidney,and peri-odontal tissues were observed.The related indexes of bone metabolism in serum were detected.The expression of os-teoprotegerin(OPG)and nuclear transcription factor-κB(NF-κB)pathway proteins was determined by Western blot.The levels of inflammatory factors were assessed by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR).Results Carvacrol hydrogel had good slow release,biocompatibility,and cell adhesion.The periodontitis of rats in the carvacrol hydrogel group was significantly alleviated,the expression of OPG protein in gingival tissue was significantly increased(P<0.01),and the levels of receptor activator of NF-κB ligand(RANKL),receptor activator of NF-κB(RANK),NF-κB protein,and inflammatory factors were significantly decreased(P<0.01).Conclusion Car-vacrol hydrogel can regulate the OPG and NF-κB pathways,reduce alveolar bone absorption,and improve periodontal inflammation.

Objective To investigate the bacterial resistance profile of clinical isolates collected in the hospitals across Chuzhou in 2016. Methods Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was carried out by Kirby-Bauer method. The data were analyzed using WHONET 5.6 software according to CLSI 2015 breakpoints. Results A total of 5 465 clinical isolates were collected during 2016, of which gram positive organisms and gram negative organisms accounted for 25.9％ (1 416/5 465) and 74.1％ (4 049/5 465), respectively. Prevalence of MRSA was 37.6％ among S. aureus and the prevalence of MRCNS was 78.1％ in CNS. All Staphylococcus, E. faecalis and E. faecium isolates were sensitive to vancomycin and linezolid. The prevalence of extended spectrum-lactamases (ESBLs) positive strains was 51.2％ in E. coli, 23.4％ in Klebsiella spp. (K. pneumoniae and K. oxytoca), and 23.6％ in P. mirabilis isolates, respectively. The Enterobacteriaceae strains were highly sensitive to carbapenems. The percentage of the P. aeruginosa isolates resistant to the antimicrobials tested was lower than 30％. The percentage of the Acinetobacter strains resistant to meropenem and imipenem was 65.6％ and 67.4％, respectively. Conclusions The situation of antibiotic resistance is still very serious, especially multi-drug or pan-drug resistant strains, which is of great concern.
