Modern Clinical Nursing 2015;(5):60-63
Objective To investigate the nosocomial infections among patients undergoing abdominal operation . Method Data in three hundred patients underwent abdominal operation in our department from January 2012 to December 2014 were reviewed. Results Seventeen cases developed nosocomial infection after operation, including 6 cases of respiratory system infection, accounting for 35.29%, 4 cases of urinary infection, accounting for 23.53%. The probability of nosocomial infection from the type Ⅲ operations was higher than that from the typeⅡ operations and that by emergency surgery was higher than that by non-emergency operations(P<0.05). Conclusions Respiratory and urinary infections are the major two types of the nosocomial infections in the abdominal operation. Sufficient preoperative preparation and postoperative nursing can reduce the incidence of nosocomial infections in abdominal surgery.

Objective: Effect of Zhengjian Granule(ZJ)(Radix Berberidis, Ramulus Euonymi, Radix Scorphulariae Rhizoma Alismatis) on blood pressure(BP) and insulin resistance(IR) in spontaneously hypertensive rats(SHR) was observed. Methods: Twenty four SHR aged 13 weeks were divided into three groups treated with large and small dosage of ZJ and nothing as compared with age matched six Wister Kyoto rats(WKY). BP, glucose(G) and insulin(I) of fasting, G/I and blood lipid were measured before and after treated 8 weeks and compared among groups. Results: While G of fasting had no difference in respective SHR groups compared with WKY, insulin of fasting was markedly higher and G/I were notably lower than WKY( P

ObjectiveTo test the expression of epidermal growth factor-like domain 7 (EGFL7),microvessel density (MVD) and foeal adhesion kinase pY397 (FAKpY397) in human glioma tissues,and to evaluate their relationship.MethodsThe expression of EGFL7 and FAKpY397 in 56 cases of human glioma and 8 cases of normal brain tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry test,and MVD was detected by CD34 staining.ResultsThere was a significant difference of the positive rates of EGFL7 between normal brain tissue (0) and gliomas (75%),χ2 =17.45,P <0.01.With the increased pathological grade,the expression level of EGFL7 increased (χ2 =26.24,P < 0.01 ).There was a significant difference of the positive rates of FAKpY397 between normal brain tissue ( 12.5% ) and gliomas (73.2%),χ2 =6.23,P < 0.05.With the increased pathological grade,the expression level of FAKpY397 increased (χ2 =6.71,P < 0.01 ). MVD on normal brain was( 15 ± 4 )/HP,on Ⅰ - Ⅱ grade and Ⅲ -Ⅳ grade gliomas was ( 27 ± 3 )/HPand ( 60 ± 4 )/HP respectively,there was a significant difference on MVD between normal brain tissue and gliomas (P < 0.01 ).Higher level of MVD was found in gliomas with higher grade ( P < 0.01 ).There was a positive correlation between EGFL7 and FAKpY397 expressions in gliomas (r =0.314,P <0.01 ).There was a significant difference on MVD between positive and negative expression of EGFL7 ( t =26.55,P < 0.01 ). MVD was (56 ± 4 )/HP and (25 ± 3 )/HP respectively.ConclusionThe expression of EGFL7 of human gliomas has a favorable positive correlation with the degree of malignancy,MVD and FAKpY397.It is indicated that EGFL7not only palys an important regulative role in glioma neovascularization,but also it may participate directly in glioma occurrence and invasion.

Objective To investigate, in vitro, the co-infection of Caco-2 cells ( epithelial cells of intestinal mucosa) with Candida albicans and Enterohemorrhagic escherichia coli ( EHEC) .Methods The ability of both species to invade the Caco-2 cells was evaluated by inverted microscopy.Damage to Caco-2 cells was evaluated by measuring lactate dehydrogenase ( LDH ) activity. C. albicans virulence gene expression ( ALS3, PLB1 and SAP4 ) was evaluated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction ( qRT-PCR) .Results Compared to simple infections with C.albicans alone, a co-infection invaded Caco-2 cells more rapidly, and C.albicans tended to proliferate more easily presenting in cluster shape of distribution.In addition, the LDH activity in the co-infection group (group 3) was the highest compared to groups 1, 2, 4 and 5, (F values of 14.48, 5.48, 11.74 and 3.45 respectively;all P <0.05);There was no significant difference in LDH activity found between the secondary fungous infection group ( group 5) and the EHEC infection group (group 2) (F=2.03, P=0.54) or between the secondary bacterial infection group (group 4) and the Candida albicans infection group (group 1) (F=2.74, P=0.11).The LDH activities in groups 2 and 5 were significantly higher than that in groups 1 and 4 ( all P <0.05 ) .In addition, an up-regulation of toxicity-related genes ( PLB1 and SAP4 ) were detected.The expression of PLB1 was higher in group 3 than that in group 1 ( P=0.014 3 ) and SAP4 was higher in groups 3 and 5 than that in group 1 (P=0.027 2, P=0.001 8, respectively).Conclusions Using Caco-2 cells for an infection model, this study demonstrated that co-infecting in vitro enterocytes with C.albicans and EHEC enhanced the invasiveness and tissue damaging effects of C.albicans.

AIM: To investigate the antioxidant status and the oxidative damage of cellular macromolecules in patients with Graves' disease. METHODS: Fasting plasma level of total antioxidant capacity (TAC), and the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) were measured in 31 patients with untreated Graves' disease and 31 treated Graves' disease. DNA damage of peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) was detected by single cell gel electrophoresis assay (expressed in comet percentage). In addition, thiol group (SH) and malondialdehyde (MDA) were measured. 31 age-matched healthy subjects were studied as a control group. RESULTS: Plasma TAC, SOD and GSH-Px were significantly lower in patients with untreated Graves' disease compared to the controls (P
