Objectives To compare the co-infection statues of HSV, HBV and HCV in patients with STD and HIV infection for providing evidence of developing prevention and control strategies. Methods Serum samples confirmed to be infected with HIV/AIDS by Western blot, and serum samples of patients with STDs (syphilis, gonorrhoea and chlamydial infection) were tested for HSV2-IgG, HSV2-IgM, HBsAg and HCV-IgG by ELISA. The detection levels were compared between the two groups. Results Out of 76 specimens in STD group, HSV2-IgG was detected in 24 specimens (31.58%), HSV2-IgM in one specimen (1.32%), HBsAg positive in 8 (10.53%), and HCV antibody positive in 4 (1.32%). In 14 specimens of HIV/AIDS group, HSV2-IgG were detected in 7 (50.00%); HSV2-IgM in 5 (35.71%);8 (578.14%) were positive for HBsAg and 3 (21.43%) for HCV. In a total of 90 specimens, both HSV and HBV were detected in 6 specimens, both HSV-IgM and HBV in 2, and the four above-mentioned antibodies in 2. The infection rates of HSV, HBV and HCV were significantly higher in HIV-infected specimens than those in the STD specimens (P

There were some samples collected from the Antarctic soil and South Ocean water for isolation of microorganisms and screening of their antitumor bioactivity by lethality bioassay using brine shrimp and a flow cytometric bioassay.There were 259 stains were isolated from the samples,11% of the Antarctic microorganisms showed strong antitumor activity.This result showed that the Antarctic microorganisms have a good potential in bioactive metabolites researching.

Objective To isolate algicolous fungi from algae and obtain antitumor strains.Methods Selective isolation of algicolous fungi from algae was done,and antitumor activity corresponds to their lethiferous effect on brine shrimp and cytotoxicity against K562 cell was determined.Results 221 strains of algicolous fungi were isolated from 28 algae samples collected from intertidal zones of the Yellow Sea.Eight strains showed lethiferous activity and eight showed cytotoxicity.Conclusion The results indicated that algicolous fungi would be one of the important resources to search for new antitumor compounds.

Objective To study the effects of rehabilitation interventions on the earthquake injured to reduce the incidences of disability,to improve the recovery of overall function of the wounded in the earthquake and to guarantee their return to family and society.Methods The rehabilitation team·work provided one-month comprehensive intervention on 92 fracture patients after earthquake and assessed with scale of participate and activities ability,before,after and in the middle of intervention.Results The ability of understanding and communication,moving body,taking care of oneself,getting along with others,undertaking daily activities.social participating and the scores from the scale of participate and activities ability improved significantly(P<0.05).Conclusion Rehabilitation interventions with team-work can effectively enhance the abilities of the earthquake injured to participate in activities and improve quality of life.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of twice-weekly hemodialysis patients.Methods Data were collected from Shanghai Renal Registry.A total of 1288 patients undergoing regular hemodialysis (HD) with dialysis adequacy index and other biochemical parameters in Shanghai in January 2007 were enrolled into the cohort study with 2 years follow-up.Clinical characteristics and outcome of twice-weekly HD patients were analyzed as compared with thrice-weekly HD patients.Results Compared with patients on thrice-weekly HD,the twice-weekly HD patients were significantly younger and had significantly shorter HD vintage,smaller body surface area,longer HD session time,higher single-pool Kt/V (spKt/V) and serum albumin but lower weekly Kt/V (P＜0.05).There was no statistical difference in ultrafiltration volume between two groups.Kaplan-Meier survival analysis indicated that both groups had similar two-year survival.Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that age,body mass index,serum albumin and weekly Kt/V were predictors of patient mortality.Conclusion It is acceptable for some hemodialys patients with twice-weekly HD,and close monitor of dialysis adequacy and volume status is necessary for this therapy model.

Objective To establish a fast and sensitive method to detect Plasmodium sporozoites in mosquitoes. Methods Anopheles anthropophagus (An.a) artificially infected with Plasmodium vivax (P.v), Anopheles dirus (An.d) infected with Plasmodium falciparum (P.f) and both of P.v and P.f, field mosquitoes of Anopheles sinensis (An.s) captured in epidemic seasons were detected by nested-PCR. Results The results of 28 batches of An.a infected with P.v, 2 batches of An.d with P.f and 1 batch of An.d mixed with P.v and P.f by nested-PCR were accorded with the microscopical examination absolutely. Two positives of 589 An.s field mosquitoes were discovered with a positive rate of 0.34%. Conclusion The nested-PCR is fast and sensitive for detecting different species of Plasmodium in mosquitoes.

Objective To investigate the effects of ciprofloxacin on anastomotic stoma,small intestinal inflammation and fibrosis in interleukin-10 knock-out mice (mice model of Crohn′s disease (CD)) after ileocaecal resection.Methods Twelve interleukin-10 knockout male C3H/HeJBir mice were evenly divided into control group and ciprofloxacin group.The mice model was established with ileocaecal resection and ileocolostomy.There was no intervention in control group.Ciprofloxacin (50 mg/kg per day)was orally administrated in ciprofloxacin group for four weeks.All the mice were executed.The intestine around anastomotic stoma was taken for hematoxylin-eosin (HE)and Sirius red staining and histological scoring.The level of interferon (IFN)-γand tumor growth factor (TGF)-βin intestine around anastomotic stoma and small intestine was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method.The content of procollagen α1 was determined by real-time polymerase chain reaction.The data were analyzed by t test.Results The inflammatory reaction level of anastomotic stoma and small intestine in mice of ciprofloxacin group (2.50±0.55 and 1 .67±0.52)was significantly lower than those of control group (3.67±0.63 and 2.83±0.75 ,t=-8.273,-5 .188,both P <0.05 ).The IFN-γof anastomotic stoma and small intestine also significantly decreased ((0.72 ±0.22 )pg/mg vs (1 .76 ±0.43 )pg/mg, (0.23±0.12)pg/mg vs (0.78 ± 0.52 )pg/mg;t = - 7.354,- 5 .268,both P < 0.05).However, ciprofloxacin could not significantly decrease fibrosis in anastomotic stoma and small intestine of CD mice. There was no significant difference in the level of TGF-βcompared with control group.Conclusions The role of ciprofloxacin in improving inflammatory reation in anastomotic stoma of CD mice was limited. Maintenance therapy may be necessary to reduce the relapse of anastomotic stoma diseases.

Objective To understand the malaria epidemic situation and characteristics in Jiangsu Province in 2012,so as to provide the evidence for formulating and adjusting effective malaria elimination strategies and measures. Methods The reported malaria cases from the Internet Reporting System and the epidemiological data of malaria in Jiangsu Province were collected and analyzed. Results A total of 198 malaria cases were reported in Jiangsu Province in 2012 with the incidence of 0.026/10 000, which decreased by 47.06%compared with that in 2011(374 cases). A total of 198 malaria cases were reported from 13 prefec-tures of Jiangsu and the cases were mainly distributed in Yangzhou(34 cases),Nantong(31 cases),Nanjing(22 cases),Tai-zhou(21 cases),Xuzhou(17 cases)and Huaian(17 cases),which accounted for 71.72%(142/198)among the total cases of the province. There were no local malaria cases reported from Jiangsu in 2012,and the imported malaria cases from other countries de-creased by 45.15%compared with that in 2011. Conclusions For the first time,there are no local malaria cases reported from Ji-angsu in 2012. However,the imported case distribution is further expanded and the infected plasmodium parasites are more di-verse. Imported malaria from other countries remains the key for malaria control in Jiangsu Province.

In order to study the resistance of Neisseria (N.) gonorrhoeae to the fluoroquinolone and detect mutation patterns of quinolone resistance-determining regions (QRDRs) of clinical isolates in Shanghai,China,a total of 80 clinical isolates of N.gonorrhoeae were consecutively collected from Shanghai.The MIC of fluoroquinolone for the isolates was examined by using the agar dilution method and the mutation profiles of the QRDRs of gyrA and parC were analyzed by sequencing and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP).Chi-square test was used for comparison of the mutation patterns.The results showed that:(1) High percentages of the 8 isolates were resistant to ciprofloxacin (95.0%),ofloxacin (95.0%) and lomefloxacin (97.5%),only one strain was susceptible to the ciprofloxacin.(2) Sensitive strains had a substitute of Asp95→Ala in the gyrA,and all isolates that were resistant or intermediated to the ciprofloxacin,had a double mutation in the gyrA (Set91,Ala 92 and Asp95).Some strains also had a mutation in the parC.(3) The MICs of these isolates were significantly associated with the mutation patterns in the gyrA and parC.A double mutation of gyrA combined with parC87 mutation was a predominant pattern in Shanghai and could mediate high level resistance to ciprofloxacin.It suggests that mutations in the QRDRs of gyrA and parC .may be re-sponsible for the fluoroquinolone resistance.And fluoroquinolone could not be used as the first line antibiotics for gonorrhea treatment any more in Shanghai,China.

Objective To investigate the surgical management of Crohn's disease complicated with duodenal fistula.Methods The clinical data of 1 012 patients with Crohn's disease who were admitted to the Nanjing General Hospital of Nanjing Military Connnand from January 2002 to January 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.Of the 1 012 patients,22 were complicated with duodenal fistula,including 12 with ileocolonic anastomosis-duodenal fistula,7 with colo-duodenal fistula,2 with sigmoido-duodenal fistula and 1 with duodeno-enteric fistula.All patients received duodenal fistula repair + resection of diseased intestine.Patients were followed up via out-patient examination,phone call and email till May 2014.The condition of patients before and after enteral nutrition support was compared using the t test.Non-normal data were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney u test.Results Two patients with abdominal infection and 1 with gastrointestinal bleeding received emergent operation,and the other 19 patients received enteral nutrition support prior to operation.Three patients received emergent colostomy.Two patients had fistula at the duodenal anastomosis,and 1 patient was cured by enteral nutrition support + drainage for 12 days and the other 1 received reoperation.The energies provided by enteral nutrition and enteral + parenteral nutrition were (25.3 ± 2.1) cal/g and (28.5 ± 3.2) cal/g,respectively,and the time for nutrition support was (31 ± 5)days.The level of C-reaction protein and Crohn's disease activity index were decreased from 25 mg/L and 207 ± 111 before treatment to 2 mg/L and 117 ± 71 after treatment,with significant difference (u =53.000,t =0.942,P ＜ 0.05).The levels of body mass index,albumin and blood sedimentation rate were (17.0 ± 2.1) kg/m2,(35 ± 5) g/L and 26 mm/h before treatment,and (17.9 ± 2.8) kg/m2,(38 ± 5) g/L and 23 mm/h after treatment,with no significant differences (t =0.482,1.170,u =67.500,P ＞ 0.05).One patient was cured by enternal nutrition.Five patients received intestinal stoma and the other 13 patients received intestinal anastomosis.Twenty-two patients were followed up with the median time of 13.4 months (range,4.0-37.0 months).One patient had recurrence of ileocolonic anastomosis-duodenal fistula and received reoperation,and complications were not observed in the other 21 patients.Conclusions Selective operation is recommended for patients with Crohn's disease complicated with duodenal fistula.Enteral nutrition support is the first choice during the interoperative management.Resection of diseased intestine combined with repair of duodenal fistula after alleviation of Crohn's disease and malnutrition could achieve satisfactorv effect.
