Objective To understand the clinical characteristics of systemic lupus erythematosus with Antiphospholipid syndrome (SLE-APS).Methods The clinical data of 39 cases of SLE-APS were collected and analyzed retrospectively. Results Thirty-one patients had 48 thrombosis episodes in total, among which the most common presenting manifestations were deep venous thrombosis and stroke. 12 of 26 married women had fetal morbidity. The prevalence of anticardio lipin antibody (aCL) and lupus anticoagulant ( LA) was 72% and 41% , respectively. 24 patients had SLE at first,on an average of 9. 5 years later they had the characteristics of APS, 12 patients had thrombosis episodes or fetal morbidities ,4. 8 years later they developed into SLE,and 3 patients had the characteristics of SLE and APS from the onset The SLEDAI was less than 5 in five cases when they had thrombosis episodes or fetal morbidities.Conclusions The incidence of thrombosis episodes or fetal morbidities increased in SLE-APS patients. APS occurred before, after or at the same time with SLE. SLE patients might have the clinical features of APS during the steady stage. It's very important to ask the medical history in detail and measure aCL in lupus patients to find the risk factor of APS and prevent the APS' occurrence.

Methods Strain specific electrophoretic patterns from PCR products by amplifying DNA sequences flanking infrequent restriction sites of 15 strains of Acinetobacter baumannii were compared with the results of biotyping and antimicrobial susceptibility. Results The 15 bacteria were divided into 5 gene types with IRS PCR, but 3 with biotyping, and 4 with antimicrobial susceptibility. Conclusion IRS PCR method for typing Acinetobacter baumannii is of strong sensitivity, high recognition, good repeatability, convenient operation, and wide range of application.

Objective: To optimize the ultrahigh pressure extraction ( UPE) process for forsythoside from Forsythia suspensa by Box-Behnken experimental design. Methods:On the basis of single factor screening, a three-factor and three-level Box-Behnken ex-perimental design was employed with liquid/material ratio( X1 ) , extraction pressure ( X2 ) and extraction time ( X3 ) as the independent variables. The response variable was the extraction yield of forsythoside. Results:The optimal UPE conditions for forsythoside were as follows:the ratio of solvent to material (ml·g-1) was 70, the extraction pressure was 151 MPa, and the extraction time was 114 s. With the optimal extraction process, the extraction yield of forsythoside was 13. 15 mg·g-1 . Conclusion:As a novel extraction tech-nology for Chinese herbal medicines, UPE procedure has higher extraction yield, lower extraction temperature, shorter extraction time and less power consumption, which provides a brand-new method for the extraction of forsythoside from Forsythia suspensa.

OBJECTIVE To determine the distribution and drug resistance characteristic of pathogens from(nosocomial) lower respiratory tract infection in wards of respiratory disease and direct clinical doctors to select(antibiotics) correctly.METHODS A total of 159 strains of pathogens from sputum samples of patients with(respiratory) tract infection in wards of respiratory disease in our hospital were identified and the drug resistance tests were performed.In addition,ESBLs-producing G~-bacilli were also detected.RESULTS Among 159 strains from respiratory tract infection,G~-bacilli rated the top one(69.8%),The most common pathogens were Pseudomonas aeruginosa(14.5%),Klebsiella pneumoniae(13.8%),Acinetobacter baumannii(10.7%),(Staphylococcus) aureus(10.7%),and fungi(9.4%).10.8% G~-bacilli produced ESBLs.CONCLUSIONS G~-(bacilli) are the main infectious pathogens in respiratory infection and antibiotic resistance rates continue to(evolve).Therefore bacterial culture and antibiotic susceptibility tests are very important to select antibiotics(correctl)y for treatment of the infections in wards of respiratory disease.

Objective To investigate the calculation method and its inlfuencing factors of Z scores in the aortic root diameters measured by echocardiography in children. Methods A total of 105 children with median age 19 months, who came to Shenzhen Children′s Hospital from March 2012 to October 2012 were included. The diameters of aortic ring (ARD) and aortic sinus (ASD) were measured by two dimension echocardiography, Z scores of ARD and ASD were calculated using two different normal reference values regression equation and mean square error derived from Shenzhen children′s hospital (C method) and Pettersen et al (P method). The regression equation from C method and body surface area (BSA) formula from P method were adopted to calculate Z scores of ARD and ASD (ZH method). The Z results of ARD and ASD calculated by those three methods were compared and were analyzed for their normality probability distributions. Results Z scores of ARD and ASD derived from C method were all showed as normal distribution (P=0.067 and 0.650). Z scores of ARD and ASD derived from P method were all showed as normal distribution (P=0.208 and 0.970). Z score of ARD derived from ZH method was showed as non-normal distribution (P=0.027), but Z score of ASD was normal distribution (P=0.430). There were no significant differences in ARD-Z calculated by C method (0.41±0.89), P method (0.23±0.85) and ZH method (0.36±0.94) (F=1.117, P=0.309). There were signiifcant differences in the Z scores of ASD calculated by C method (0.38±0.89), P method (0.58±0.71) and ZH method (0.36±0.84) (F=5.443, P=0.005). Z scores of ARD (r=0.917, P=0.000) and ASD (r=0.900, P=0.000) calculated by C method correlated well with that by P method. Conclusions Calculation method of BSA and normal reference values regression equation were the main influencing factors of Z score value in quantifying children aortic root diameters by echocardiography. For the clinical applications. The normal reference value should be used which is suitable for the Chinese children.
