and each of the resistant strains was resistant at least to 5 antibiotics.13 strains out of the 28 harbored plasmids ranging from 1 to 6 in number and 105 Md to 2.7 Md in molecular weight.The plasmid with 50 Md was the most popular one in this study,which may be the epidemic plasmid in the urologic unit.It was also found that 2 different species of bacteria isloated from the patients with infection of the urinary tract showed identical plasmid profile,which indicates that these 2 patients may be associated with each other.

Objective To explore the clinical value of serum inhibin B in predicting ovarian stone.Methods 158 patients were divided 3 groups:73 premature ovarian failure(POF) group and 55 decreasing ovarian stone(DOS) group,while 30 nomal women were taken as the control group,their basal serum inhibin B(INHB),estradiol(E2),follicle stimulating hormone(FSH),resistance index(RI),ovary follicle(OVF),ovary diameter(OVD),and symptom point were detected.Results Comparde with the control group,the level of INHB decreased significantly in the POF group and DOS group(P

Objective The purpose of this study was to evaluate the perioperative management of patients with recent myocardial infarction (MI) undergoing non-cardiac surgery.Methods Twelve patients underwent general or thoracic surgery on the 72th to 175th day after acute MI. Their mean age was (67?4 ) years old. All patients received epidural block or epidural block combined with general anesthesia. Epidural catheter was left in place for postoperative analgesia.Results All patients underwent operation smoothly. During operation ECG monitoring showed no ischemic ST-T changes. Postoperative pain relif was satisfactory. No acute heart failure or myocardial reinfarction occurred during their stay in hospital.Conclusions In patients who had recent MI the time interval between the first MI and surgery should not be the only factor in the risk assessment. Other factors such as urgency of surgery, the severity of coronary artery disease, exercise tolerance and complexity of surgery should also be considered. Adequate preoperative evaluation and preparation and maintenance of cardiac function during perioperative period are crucial to the safety of surgery. Epidural block combined with general anesthesia is the anesthesia of choice for patient with recent MI undergoing non-cardiac surgery.

Student awareness of rehabilitation medicine theory was still weak after learning for some time. We tried to impart rehabilitation concepts and thoughts to students during the course of rehabilitation technique. Following one controlled and randomized study, the Results of treatment group was more significant than that of controls.

Objective:To investigate if downregulation of two mitotic checkpoint proteins, MAD2 and p55CDC, is a frequent event in human prostate cancer and whether decreased expression of these two proteins are associated with progression of prostate cancer. Methods: Using immunohistochemistry technique, the expressions of MAD2 and p55CDC proteins are examined in 46 benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) and 65 prostate cancer tissues. Differential expressions were compared first between BPH and prostate cancer specimens, and then among prostate cancer samples with different Gleason grades. Results: We found that down regulation of MAD2 and p55CDC expressions was significant in prostate cancer (96% and 83%, respectively) compared to BPH (19.5% and 4.3%, respectively) ( P

Objective:To confirm the efficacy and safety of Tiankui antihypertension tablets combined with chemical drugs in the treatment of patients with hypertension whose blood pressure can 't reach the standard after the treatment only with chemical drugs. Methods:Randomized, double-blind, placebo control and multicenter clinical trials were performed on 240 subjects (160 in the ex-periment group and 80 in the control group) in 6 clinical trial centers. Tiankui antihypertension tablets and the placebo were respec-tively given with 4 tablets per time and 3 times a day. The efficacy and safety were observed. Results:For the blood pressure control, the significant efficiency of the experimental group was 63. 23%, while that of the control group was 31. 65%. The significant efficien-cy and effective rate of the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome of the experimental group was 48. 39% and 20. 25%, re-spectively, while that of the control group was 20. 25% and 36. 71%, respectively. All of the studied clinical indicators showed signifi-cant differences between the two groups (P<0. 05). No severe adverse reaction was shown in the two groups. Conclusion:Tiankui an-tihypertension tablets combined with chemical drugs exhibits better curative effect and safety in the treatment of hypertension patients whose blood pressure can’ t reach the standard after the treatment only with chemical drugs.

Objective To evaluate the significance of surgical exploration for the refractory arterial crisis daring the hypersensitive period (48 h to 96 h) after replantation of severed fingers.Methods One hundred and seventy-one patients experienced refractory arterial crisis during the hypersensitive period after replantation of the proximal thumb from February 1995 to February,2005 in our department.Eighty-seven of them were managed with surgical exploration,including incision injury (n=6),saw injury (n=17),rotation and avulsion injury (n=30), and crush injury (n=34).Eighty-four cases received conservative treatment,including incision injury (n=6),saw injury (n=16).rotation and avulsion injury (n=29),and crush injury (n=33).In the surgery group,the e- mergent explorations were performed as soon as the refractory arterial crisis arose,If arterial spasm or/and thrombosis were found,the involved parts were resected before the artery ends were anastomosed or the finger artery was repaired by cubital vein graft.In the other group,conservative managements were carried out by using intramuscular injection of 30 mg Papaverine and intravenous injection of 20,000-unit Urokinase in 20 mL normal saline.If symptums were not alleviated after half an hour,the procedures were repeated.The conservative managements also included abirritative antipsychotics and analgesia of anodyne.Meanwhile,the survival state of all the digital replants was observed. Results In the surgery group,78 fingers survived,the surviving rate being 89.7%.In the conservative group,41 fingers survived with a surviving rate of 48.8%.The difference was statistically significant (P＜0.01).No obvious complications happened in the two groups.Conclusion Since surgical exploration is crucial to management of refractory arterial crisis during the hypersensitive period after replantation of severed fingers,it should not be readily abandoned.

The amino acid contents of five floral sources Chinese honeys (jujube, rape, chaste, acacia, and lungan) were measured using reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). The results showed that proline was the main amino acid in most of the analyzed samples. Phenylalanine presents at the highest content in chaste honey samples, and the total amino acid contents of chaste honeys were also significantly higher than those of other honey samples. Based on the amino acid contents, honey samples were classified using chemometric methods (cluster analysis (CA), principal component analysis (PCA), and discriminant analysis (DA)). According to the CA results, chaste honeys could be separated from other honeys, while the remaining samples were correctly grouped together when the chaste honey data were excluded. By using DA, the overall correct classification rate reached 100%. The results revealed that amino acid contents could potentially be used as indicators to identify the botanical origin of unifloral honeys.
