Objective To establish a simple ,rapid,highly specific and sensitive molecular detection of carbapenem-resistance acinetobacter baumannii(CRAB)OXA-23 genes,and this method is used to detect the multiple drug-resistant acinetobacter bau-mannii in our hospital,and the purpose is to know the antibiotic resistance of CRAB OXA-23 genes .Methods The loop-mediated isothermal amplification(LAMP)was established for detection of the CRAB OXA-23 genes,and a set of specific primers were de-signed by special software,PrimerExplorer version 4.The LAMP assay was developed on using SYBR Green Ⅰ for fluorescent chromogenic reaction substances,improved through a series of optimization tests,and through macroscopic observation and electro-phoresis test comparison results.At the same time,the application of LAMP was used to test 41 multiple drug-resistant acineto-bacter baumanniis which were collected from December 2013 to March 2014 in our hospitalized patients.Results The ladder ban-ding was produced in CRAB OXA-23 genes strains by the LAMP detection through electrophoresis test,however,no ladder ban-ding was observed in the others .The color of the amplification product in genes strain CRAB OXA-23 changed from orange to green by adding 1 μL SYBR Green Ⅰ,however it was still orange in others.The sensitivity of the LAMP detection in pure cultrue was 5 cfu/μL of the CRAB OXA-23 genes cells.Application of LAMP was used to separate multiple drug-resistant acinetobacter baumanniis from hospitalized patients ,32 strains were tested in 41 strains,the positive rate was 78.04%.Conclusion Separation of the CRAB OXA-23 genes carry rate is higher in our hospital ,and they have very high resistance of commonly used antibacterial drugs.The LAMP method to test OXA-23 gene of CRAB was established in this research was simple ,fast,sensitive and specific. Therefore,it is especially suitable wider use at the grass-roots unit,and it is of great significance for selecting reasonable choice of antibiotics by clinical doctor.

Objective To investigate the types and frequency of gene mutations of β‐thalassemia in south of Sichuan area ,so as to provide basis for β‐thalassemia prevention plan and to help drop β‐thalassemia incidence effectively .Methods Polymerase chain reaction(PCR)and reverse dot blot(RDB)techniques were employed to perform diagnostic analysis for β‐thalassemia genes in sus‐pected thalassemia patient in south of Sichuan region.Results The detection rate of β‐thalassemia was 60 .1% among 319 cases ;9 genes mutation types was found among 17β‐thalassemia genes mutation types .Three types of gene mutations had highest frequency of occurrence ,followed by CD17 41 .3% ,CD41‐42 27 .39% ,IVS‐Ⅱ‐654 24 .35% .Conclusion The gene mutation rate of β‐thalasse‐mia are higher in south of Sichuan region .In order to prevent the birth of children with intermedial and major thalassemia ,the sig‐nificance is important to strengthen hematology screenings and genetic diagnosis for β‐thalassemia.

Objective To study the imaging characteristics of vesical leukoplakia under the cys-toscope imaging system. Methods The characteristics of vesical leukoplakia were observed under the cystoscope imaging system in 556 cases. After anti-infection treatment to these patients, the chan-ges of the characteristic under the cystoseope imaging system were re-observed and compared before and after treatment. SPSS 11.0 software package x2 teat for statistical analysis was used. Results Under the cystoscope imaging system, there were four different imaging manifestations in the 556 pa-tients. These were, from mild to severe, congestive type in 42 cases, spots type in 56 cases, thin macular type in 399 cases and thick macular type in 59 cases. One type could transform to another af-ter anti-infection treatment. When reexamination by the cystoscope, 131 cases got improved, 304 cases had no changes and 121 cases were aggravated. Statistical analysis showed the transformation among the 4 types had significant difference (x2 = 130.92, v=6, P<0.001). From congestive type to spots type, thin macular type and thick macular type, after anti-infection treatment, the ratio of improved cases decreased gradually, however the ratio of aggravated cases and cases without changes increased gradually. Conclusion Vesical leukoplakia could be classified into 4 types initially: congestive type,spots type, thin macular type, thick macular type. The different clinical treatments should be provid-ed.

BACKGROUND: Stent implantation cannot only cause an adaptive change of blood vessels, but also result in intravascular hemodynamic changes, including vascular wall shear stress and disturbance flow.OBJECTIVE: To provide a theoretical basis for optimizing the stent design based on hemodynamics evaluation of the stented blood vessel by numerical simulation.METHODS: Hemodynamics of the stented vessels were simulated by three-dimensional modeling,vessel-stent coupling, mesh partioning, boundary conditions setting. Then the trends of wall shear stress on six different vascular stent models were assessed and compared.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The wall shear stress had the changing trend consistent with the inlet velocity. The wall shear stress was increased or decreased with the increase of decrease of inlet velocity, and reached or became close to the valley value when the inlet velocity was at valley value. This change rule was not affected by the structural change of the stent model. In the same stent model, the minimum wall shear stress at each point was less than 0.5 Pa, and these minimum values < 0.5 Pa lasted for different time in each cardiac cycle. In different stent models, the amount of points where the wall shear stress was less than 0.5 Pa in different cardiac cycles were in variety. To conclude, the wall shear stress at a point of the wall is positively correlated with the inlet velocity. During a cardiac cycle, at some time points, intimal hyperplasia is prone to occur in the region with the wall shear stress less than 0.5 Pa. Therefore, we should try to minimize the low wall shear stress region.

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of CDK4 and cyclin D1 in gastric carcinoma,and to discuss their correlation with WHO histological classification,TNM stages and lymph node metastasis.Methods Forty paraffin wax specimens from patients with gastric carcinoma were collected and expression of CDK4 and cyclin D1 proteins were detected by immunohistochemistry.Results Immunohistochemistry demonstrated that the positive rates for CDK4 and cyclin D1 protein were 65% and 55%,respectively.There was positive correlation between CDK4 and cyclin D1 proteins(P0.05).Conclusion CDK4 and cyclin D1 proteins are frequently overexpressed in gastric carcinoma and there is a positive relationship between the two proteins,which may be involved in the development of gastric carcinoma.

Objective:To compare the effectiveness of fire needle versus Western medicine in the treatment of herpes zoster. Methods:Randomized controlled trials comparing fire needle with Western medicine in the treatment of herpes zoster were identified using 8 databases. A meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 software. Results:Eight trials involving 569 patients were included in this meta-analysis, and the results showed that fire needle was superior to Western medicine comparing the effective rate [risk ratio (RR)=1.13, 95％ confidence interval (CI): 1.06 to 1.20;P=0.0002], the visual analog scale (VAS) score [mean difference(MD)=–7.95, 95％ CI: –10.71 to –5.20;P<0.00001], time of pain disappearance (MD=–7.61, 95％CI: –9.38 to –5.84;P<0.00001), time of blister-stop (MD=–1.34, 95％CI: –1.51 to –1.18;P<0.00001), time of crusted scab (MD=–2.92, 95％CI: –3.62 to –2.23;P<0.00001), and time of scab off (MD=–4.64, 95％CI: –5.83 to –3.46;P<0.00001). In addition, a significantly lower incidence of postherpetic neuralgia was found in the fire needle group in 30 d (RR=0.23, 95％CI: 0.11 to 0.51;P=0.0002) and 60 d (RR=0.33, 95％CI: 0.12 to 0.91; P=0.03) after treatment. Conclusion:Fire needle has a favorable effect in increasing the effective rate, relieving pain, recovering skin lesions and decreasing incidence of postherpetic neuralgia in the treatment of herpes zoster. However, considering the limitations in this study, the findings should be interpreted cautiously.
