Antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) is an important means to clinical microbiology. At present, there are no standard AST methods for aquatic pathogens comparing with human and veterinary pathogens. We reviewed the recent research progress on establishing these methods and discussed the key factors in AST of aquatic pathogens. Furthermore the defect of AST of aquatic pathogens in China was profiled and prospect for further research was put forward.

Epidemics of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) have mainly been caused by Coxsackievirus A16 (CVA16) and Enterovirus A 71 (EV-A71), which circulated alternatively or together in the affected area. CVA16 has caused numerous outbreaks and epidemics in multiple countries and geographical regions, and has become an important public health problem. Based on an analysis of the complete VP1 coding region, all CVA16 strains can be divided into genotypes A, B1, and B2. Furthermore, genotype B1 can be divided into subgenotypes B1a, B1b, and B1c. After 2000, no reports of genotype B2 virus strains have been reported. All of the CVA16 strains reported in mainland China have belonged to subgenotypes B1a and B1b. Most CVA16-associated infections cause only mild symptoms; however, some CVA16 infections can lead to severe complications and even death. Vaccination is considered to be the most effective method to control the transmission and infection rate of this virus. A number of research groups are studying various vaccine types, including inactivated vaccines, genetic engineering vaccines, and DNA vaccines, amongst others. In this review, an overview is provided of the research advances in molecular epidemiology and vaccines of CVA16.

Thirty six patients with hypertriglyceridemia and impaired glucose regulation or newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes, whose fasting plasma glucose was ≤8.0 mmol/L, were treated by fenofibrate for 3 months. Lipid profile, insulin during intravenous glucose tolerance test and oral glucose tolerance test ( including glucose) were measured before and after treatment After treatment, lipid profile was significantly improved. Insulinogenic index (△I30/△G30) and acute insulin response were significantly increased (98. 9vs. 129. 2, 3558.9 vs. 4783. 3 pmol · L - 1 · min - 1, respectively, P ＜ 0. 05 ). Fasting insulin and insulin resistant index in homeostasis model assessment ( HOMA IR) decreased ( 128. 6 vs. 84. 8 pmol/L, 4. 8 vs.3.0, respectively, P ＜0. 05 ). The improvement of insulin secretory function was more significant in patients with higher triglyceride (TG ＞ 3. 3 mmol/L). These results indicate that short-term lipid-lowering treatment with fenofibrate can improve β-cell function and insulin resistance. Patients with higher triglyceride are likely to achieve more benefit from lipid-lowering treatment.

[Objective] The study was conducted to investigate the effect of micronized fenofibrate on acute insulin response in the subjects with impaired glucose metabolism and hypertriglyceridemia. [Methods] Fifty-three subjects were randomly (2:1 ratio) allocated to fenofibrate group (n=36, including IFG 3 cases, IGT 19 cases, IFG/IGT 6 cases, T2DM 8 cases) or control group (n = 17, including IFG 1 case, IGT 9 cases, IFG/IGT 4 cases, T2DM 3 cases) without any intervention for 3 months. Fasting blood samples were collected for measuring fasting plasma glucose (FPG), free fatty acids (FFA), and lipid profile. IVGTTs were carried out with measurement of plasma insulin before and after treatment. Acute insulin response (AIR), the maximum insulin concentrations (C_(INS,MAX)) to fasting insulin (FINS) ratio (C_(INS,MAX)/FINS) and values of the maximum insulin concentrations increment (△C_(INS)) during IVGTT were calculated as indexes of first-phase insulin secretion. HOMA insulin resistance index (HOMA IR) was used for assessing insulin resistance. [Results] After 3-month treatment, the lipid profile was evidently improved in fenofibrate group. Levels of trigiyceridemia (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and FFA were significantly reduced and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol increased significantly. Waist circumference was also significantly declined. No change of above indicators was found in control group. In fenofibrate group, C_(INS,MAX)/FINS and △C_(INS) were significantly increased (median 8.4 pmol/L vs. 5.3 pmol/L, 808±473 pmol/L vs. 660±472 pmol/L, both P<0.0001), along with great improvement of AIR (5 585±3 441 pmol·L~(-1)·min~(-1) vs. 4 444±3 642 pmol·L~(-1)·min~(-1), P<0.0001). The level of FINS and HOMA IR was also markedly reduced (108±65 pmol/L vs. 166±115 pmol/L, P = 0.002; 3.8±2.3 vs. 6.0±4.2, P = 0.001). In contrast, there were modest declining in acute insulin response (AIR: 4 313～1 943 pmol·L~(-1)·min~(-1) vs. 5 362±2 861 pmol·L~(-1).min~(-1); C_(INS,MAX)/FINS: median 4.6 vs. 7.0, P= 0.01; △C_(INS): 641±286 pmol/L, vs. 720±321 pmol/L, P= 0.003 9) and increasing HOMA IR (7.8±4.2 vs. 5.6±3.2, P<0.000 1) in control group after 3-month follow-up. The improvement of AIR was correlated with the decreasing of plasma FFA and TG (r=0.41, 0.36, P = 0.002, 0.014), but no correlation with the changing of FPG and HOMA IR. [Conclusions] These results indicated that sbort-term lipid-lowering treatment with fenofibrate evidently improved acute insulin response and alleviated insulin resistance in subjects with impaired glucose metabolism and hypertriglyceridemia. Moreover, the improvement of insulin secretion capacity may be mainly due to the relieving of iipotoxity resulting from finofibrate.

AIM: To investigate the preoperative binocular visual function of intermittent exotropia and the rebuilding and recovery of the postoperative binocular visual function, and analyze the effect of binocular visual function on orthophoria after surgery.
METHODS:From January 2011 to January 2014, 47 basic intermittent exotropia patients caming for treatment were collected in the clinical data. The changes in their near stereopsis, binocular visual function, binocular fusion and distance stereopsis after operations were recorded in the form of data. The preoperative binocular vision and the postoperative rebuilding were analyzed and contrasted with each other. In addition, the effect on the postoperative maintaining of orthophoria due to the existence, recovery and rebuilding of binocular visual function were observed.
RESULTS:Intermittent exotropia patients got damage in different levels on their binocular visual functions, especially on distance stereopsis, which was the heaviest and earliest. After the operation, all functions were obviously recovered and reconstructed and the improvements were statistically significant compared against those before the operation (P<0. 01). Patients having binocular visual function or part of it before the operation had a higher ratio of orthophoria compared against the patients who had lost binocular visual function before the operation and the difference was statistically significant (P<0. 01). The recovery and reconstruction of the postoperative binocular visual function played an important role in maintaining the orthophoria.
CONCLUSION: The intermittent exotropia cause damage to the stereopsis which happened the earliest. Obvious recovery and reconstruction of binocular visual function can be observed after the surgery. A relatively good preoperative binocular visual function may lead to the increase in the ratio of orthophoria or cure the intermittent exotropia. Performing an operation when distance stereopsis is damaged can increase the success rate for the surgery and reduce the recurrence rate.

OBJECTIVETo test the different contrctile responses of extracellular nucleotides, such as ATP, UTP and nucleotide uridine adenosine tetraphosphate (Up4A) in gastric longitudinal muscle (LM) and circular muscle (CM). Examined the effect of P2X and P2Y receptor antagonists (in this study, we used IP5I and suramin) and cyclooxygenase inhibitor (indomethacin) on Up4A induced contractile responses in LM and CM.

METHODSThe rats were sacrificed and the stomachs were opened to gain LM and CM. Using organ bath system to assess contrctile responses of smooth muscle.

RESULTSUp4A could induce contractile responses in both CM and LM, which were similar with ATP and UTP. IP5 did not attenuate Up4A could induce contractions in both LM and CM, but suramin and indomethacin significantly inhibited Up4A contraction in CM, but not in LM.

CONCLUSIONOur results suggest that extracellular nucleosides and their inhibitors induce different responses between LM and CM.
