Objective To determine whether erythromycin-resistant propionibacteria isolated from patients with acne in Wuhan city harbor 23S rRNA gene mutations as well as the transposon Tn5432 carrying ermX genes.Methods Twenty-nine Propionibacterium strains isolated from outpatients with acne in Wuhan city were included in this study.The E-test method was used to determine the susceptibility of these strains to erythromycin and clindamycin.PCR was performed to amplify the 23S rRNA,ermX,ermX (cj),IS1249a and IS1249b genes from resistant strains followed by DNA sequencing and nucleotide alignment.Results Among the 29 Propionibacterium strains,19 were identified as P.acnes and 10 as P.avidum.All of these Propionibacterium strains were resistant to erythromycin (MIC ＞ 256 μg/ml) and clindamycin (MIC ＞ 256 μg/ml),except for 3 P.acnes strains sensitive to clindamycin.Seven P.acnes strains resistant to both antibiotics exhibited an A→G transition at a position cognate with Escherichia coli 23S rRNA 2058.An A→G transition at a position cognate with E.coli 23S rRNA 2059 was identified in one clindamycin-resitant and three clindamycin-sensitive P.acnes isolates.The ermX gene was found in the remaining 8 P.acnes isolates and 2 P.avidum isolates,with the sequence 100％ identical to the reference sequence of the ermX gene of P.acnes in Genbank.Meanwhile,the ermX (cj) gene was successfully amplified from the other 8 P.avidum isolates,which showed 99％ sequence homology with the ermX (cj) gene of Corynebacterium jeikeium,but 94％ homology with the ermX gene of P.acnes in Genbank.Both IS1249a and IS1249b genes were amplified in the 10 ermX gene-positive Propionibacterium strains,but not in the other ermX gene-negative strains.Conclusions The erythromycin resistance in Propionibacterium isolates from Wuhan city may be associated with the A→G transition at the E.coli equivalent bases 2058 and 2059 of the 23S rRNA gene,as well as the presence of the erm X (transferred through the transposon Tn5432) and ermX (c j) genes.

Visual prostheses have the potential to restore partial vision for the blinds. The stimulating electrodes generate reproducible phosphenes. Still limited by the low resolution vision used in visual prostheses nowadays, it is important to optimize the image processing strategies in order to deliver better visual information to the patients. This paper presents a review of the current research progress on the image processing strategies based on visual attention models under simulated prosthetic vision and related psychophysics.

Objective:To investigate the clinical significance of inflammatory factors in bacterial infection children with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency in PICU.Methods:A prospective cohort study was carried out from June 2014 to December 2017. 77 bacterial infection children with pediatric critical illness score less than 80 who were admitted to the PICU, were recruit in the study.The patient diagnosed as other basic diseases,with history of high-dose glucocorticoid use, discharged or died within 24 hours were excluded.The recruited patients were divided into G6PD deficiency group (observation group with 36 cases) and non-G6PD deficiency group (control group with 41 cases) according to the presence or absence of G6PD deficiency.Blood samples were taken at admission, 12 hand 24 h after hospitalization to detect the concentrations of tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), interleukin 6 (IL-6), interleukin 10 (IL-10) andC-reactive protein (CRP). T test, χ2 test and Fisher exact test were used to analyze the changes of the above inflammatory factors, complications, prognosis, PICU stay time and hospitalization costs. Results:The levels of inflammatory factors in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group at admission, 12 and 24 hours after hospitalization, the differences were statistically significant (all P< 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in thechangerate of inflammatory factors between the two groups during treatment; The PICU stay time of observation group was longer [(7.98 ± 6.55) vs (5.01 ± 6.21)] and the hospitalization cost (yuan) was higher [(36 634.09 ± 11 876.67) vs (31 571.42 ± 10 245.80)], P<0.05; Compared to the control group, the incidence ofsevere sepsis, septic shock, MODS increased significantly, and the curative rate decreasedsignificantly in observation group( P<0.05). Conclusions:G6PD-deficient children with bacterial infections had serious inflammatory reactions with poor prognosis and higher hospitalization costs and were susceptible to the occurrence of severe sepsis, septic shock and MODS.

Objective:To explore the serum levels of inflammatory cytokines and prognosis in severe acute infection children with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase(G6PD) deficiency.Methods:A total number of 160 children with severe acute infections admitted to PICU of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Maternal and Child Health Hospital from June 2014 to December 2017 were selected as subjects in this study, including 80 children with G6PD deficiency(observation group) and 80 children without G6PD deficiency(control group). The changes of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-10 and CRP were dynamically monitored at 0-hour, 12-hour and 24-hour after admision, and the occurrences of sepsis, multiple organ dysfunction syndrome(MODS) were prospectively analyzed.Results:The levels of serum cytokines and CRP in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group at admission[TNF-α: (65.57±19.09) pg/ml vs.(46.53±20.34) pg/ml; IL-6: (98.90±29.02) pg/ml vs.(89.89±25.54) pg/ml; IL-10: (87.66±21.84) pg/ml vs.(76.34±19.01) pg/ml; CRP: (60.18±22.24) mg/L vs.(41.43±19.51) mg/L, respectively], and the differences between two groups were statistically significant( P<0.05). The levels of cytokines and CRP in the observation group were higher than those in the control group at 12 h and 24 h after treatment( P<0.01). Compared with the control group, the incidences of sepsis(82.50% vs 67.50%) and MODS(73.75% vs 58.75%) in the observation group increased, and the recovery rate(81.25% vs 92.50%) decreased, with statistical significance between two groups( P<0.05). Conclusion:Children with G6PD deficiency need to be paid more attention to inflammation, sepsis, MODS and the difficulty of treatment when they are infected.The potential mechanism may be related to oxidative stress.

ObjectiveTo explore the influence of the core symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder （ADHD） on behavioral problems of children with ADHD propensity， so as to provide references for early identification and targeted intervention for children with ADHD propensity. MethodsFrom July to August 2021， 25 children with ADHD propensity were screened as the ADHD propensity group， and 25 children matched for age， gender and grade were included as the normal group in an elementary school in Guangzhou. ADHD core symptoms were assessed by the Chinese version of the Swanson Nolan and Pelham， version IV-parent form for ADHD （SNAP-IV）， and behavioral problems were assessed by Questionnaire-Children with Difficulties （QCD） and Conners Parental Symptom Questionnaire （PSQ）. Spearman correlation analysis was used to examine the correlation between ADHD core symptoms and QCD and PSQ scores， and hierarchical linear regression analysis was used to explore the effect of ADHD core symptoms on behavioral problems. Results① The differences between the groups showed that both attention deficit and hyperactivity-impulsivity factor scores were higher in the ADHD propensity group than those in the normal group （t=7.771， 6.726， P<0.01）. ② Correlation analysis showed that the attention deficit factor score was negatively correlated with QCD total score （r=-0.440， P<0.05）， and positively correlated with the learning problem factor score of PSQ （r=0.457， P<0.05）. The score of hyperactivity-impulsivity was negatively correlated with score of anxiety factor in PSQ （r=-0.457， P<0.05）， and positively correlated with impulse-hyperactivity factor score （r=0.552， P<0.01）. ③ Hierarchical linear regression analysis showed that the attention deficit factor score negatively predicted the total score of QCD （B=-0.682， P<0.05， R²=0.468）. The hyperactivity-impulsivity factor score had a negative predictive effect on the anxiety factor score of PSQ （B=-0.048， P<0.05， R²=0.367）， and had a positive predictive effect on the impulsivity-hyperactivity factor score （B=0.077， P<0.01， R²=0.424）. ConclusionChildren with ADHD propensity have significant attention deficit symptoms， hyperactivity-impulsivity symptoms and behavioral problems， and the attention deficit may be the main cause of their daily behavioral problems， while hyperactivity-impulsivity may be the main cause of their impulsive-hyperactivity problems.
